Ingabe wake waba nobuhlungu emhlane kusukela usemusha? Ingabe ubuhlungu obungavamile obuhlala njalo, obuzwakala sengathi umgogodla wakho wenziwe ngamatshe uma uvuka ekuseni, futhi uba ngcono ngokuzivocavoca umzimba? Mhlawumbe usuzame izindlela ezahlukene zokwelapha, kodwa awukakatholi ukuthi buyini ngempela? Uma kunjalo, lesi sihloko sizoba sibaluleke kakhulu kuwe. Namuhla sizokhuluma nge-Ankylosing Spondylitis, noma i-AS ngamafuphi.
Kungani kunzima kangaka ukuxilonga i-AS?
Kalula nje, i-Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) ukuvuvukala okungapheli kwamalunga omgogodla kanye ne-pelvis. Kunezizathu eziningana eziyinhloko zokuthi kungani kungaba nzima ukuxilonga.
Into yokuqala ukuthi izimpawu zalesi sifo zibonakala kancane kakhulu . Awuzizwa umehluko omkhulu ngokushesha. Into yesibili futhi ebaluleke kakhulu ukuthi uphawu oluyinhloko lwalesi sifo ubuhlungu bomhlane . Manje cabanga ngakho, kuvame kangakanani ubuhlungu bomhlane? Uma uphakamisa into engalungile, uma uhlala isikhathi eside, uma ulele endaweni engafanele, umhlane wakho ungabuhlungu. Ngakho-ke, abantu abaningi bacabanga ukuthi lokhu kuyinkinga evamile yomhlane.
Ngenxa yalezi zizathu, izifundo zithole ukuthi kungathatha iminyaka engu-8 kuya kwengu-10 kusukela ngesikhathi umuntu eqala ukukhombisa izimpawu ukuze atholakale ene-AS. Kodwa-ke, ukutholakala kwalesi sifo kusenesikhathi kubalulekile ukuze kuthuthukiswe ukusebenza kahle kokwelashwa.
Ngakho-ke, akukho ukuhlolwa okukodwa okungaqinisekisa ukuthi "Ingabe ngine-AS?" ngasikhathi sinye. Kodwa-ke, udokotela usebenzisa inhlanganisela yezivivinyo ukuthola lesi sifo, njengokuxazulula iphazili, ukuze afinyelele esiphethweni.
Yiziphi izinyathelo ezisetshenziswa udokotela ukuthola lesi sifo?
Uma uya kudokotela mayelana nobuhlungu bakho emhlane, uzolandela izinyathelo eziningana uma esola lesi simo.
1. Ukukubuza imininingwane nokukuhlola ngokomzimba
Into yokuqala ozoyenza ukukhuluma nawe ngokucophelela futhi ubuze ngezimpawu zakho. Bazokubuza imibuzo ejulile, ikakhulukazi mayelana nobuhlungu bakho emhlane. Uma ubuhlungu bakho emhlane buhambisana okungenani nezici ezine ezilandelayo, udokotela wakho angase asole i-AS.
| Isici esisolisayo | Incazelo |
|---|---|
| Ubudala | Ingabe izinhlungu zaqala ngaphambi kweminyaka engama-35? |
| Ukuqala | Ingabe ubuhlungu buyanda kancane kancane? |
| Isikhathi | Ingabe sekuphele izinyanga ezingaphezu kwezintathu kuqhubeka? |
| Umphumela wokuzivocavoca | Ingabe ubuhlungu buyancipha uma uzivocavoca noma uhamba? |
| Ukuqina kwasekuseni | Uma uvuka ekuseni, ingabe umhlane wakho uzizwa uqinile futhi kunzima ukugoba cishe ihora? |
Ngaphezu kwalokho, udokotela uzobuza ukuthi kukhona yini emndenini wakho oke waba nalolu hlobo lwesifo samalunga. Lokhu kungase kube nokuxhumana kwezakhi zofuzo. Uzohlola nokuthi umgogodla wakho uqine futhi ugobeka kangakanani. Uzohlola ukuthi ubuhlungu bukhona yini uma ucindezela umgogodla wakho kanye namanye amalunga. Ngezinye izikhathi, angase ahlole nokuthi isifuba sakho sikhula kanjani (uma uphefumula).
2. Izifundo Zokuthwebula Izithombe
Lezi izivivinyo ezithatha izithombe zangaphakathi lomzimba. Lezi ziwusizo kakhulu ekuxilongeni izifo.
- I-X-ray: Uma kusolwa ukuthi i-AS, udokotela angase aqale a-ode i-X-ray. I-sacroiliac joint, lapho umgogodla uqala khona futhi uxhumeka khona ethanjeni lesinqe, ibizwa ngokuthi i-sacroiliac joint. Izinguquko kuleli lunga ziyizimpawu ezisobala kakhulu ze-AS. Ngeshwa, lezi zinguquko azibonakali ku-X-ray kuze kube yiminyaka eminingana ngemuva kokuqala kwezimpawu .
- I-CT Scan (I-Computerized Tomography Scan): Uma kungekho lutho olubonakala ngokucacile ku-X-ray, kodwa udokotela esola ukuthi i-AS, angakuthumela ukuthi uyohlolwa nge-CT scan. Lokhu kungaveza isithombe esinemininingwane eminingi, esinezinhlangothi ezintathu (3D) kune-X-ray.
- Ukuskena kwe-MRI (Ukufanekisa Ukuzwakala Kwe-Magnetic):Lolu vivinyo oluwusizo kakhulu ekuxilongeni i-AS ezigabeni zayo zokuqala. I-MRI ayisebenzisi i-X-ray, kodwa isebenzisa ubuchwepheshe obukhulu be-magnet kanye nekhompyutha ukuze ibone ngokucacile ingaphakathi lomzimba, ikakhulukazi izicubu ezithambile namalunga, lapho ukuvuvukala kungenzeka khona.
- Ukuskena nge-ultrasound: Lokhu kusebenzisa amaza omsindo ukudala izithombe. Lokhu kusacwaningwa njengendlela yokuthola i-AS kusenesikhathi.
3. Ukuhlolwa Kwegazi
Udokotela wakho angase futhi acele ukuhlolwa kwegazi okuningana, ikakhulukazi ukuze abheke izimpawu zokuvuvukala ezingabonisa ukuthi kukhona yini ukuvuvukala emzimbeni.
Futhi, kukhona olunye ukuhlolwa kofuzo okuqondile kakhulu , okuwukuhlolwa kofuzo lwe-HLA-B27 .
Into ebalulekile yile: ukuthi nje une-gene ye-HLA-B27 emzimbeni wakho akusho ukuthi une-AS 100% yesikhathi . Kodwa iningi labantu abane-AS linale gene. Ngakho-ke, uma unale gene kanye nezimpawu zakho, kungaba yinkomba ebaluleke kakhulu kudokotela wakho ukuthola ukuthi unesifo yini.
Ngakho-ke uyabona, ukuxilonga i-AS kufana nokusebenza njengomseshi. Kudinga ubufakazi obuningi, hhayi ubufakazi obubodwa nje, ukuze kufinyelelwe esiphethweni esifanele.
Umlayezo Wokuya Nawe Ekhaya
- I-Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) ayikwazi ukuxilongwa ngokuhlolwa okukodwa. Kuyinqubo enezinyathelo eziningi.
- Uma ubulokhu unobuhlungu obuqhubekayo emhlane kanye nokuqina kusukela usemusha, ikakhulukazi ekuseni, ungakushayi indiva njengento evamile bese ubona udokotela.
- Uma lesi sifo sitholakala ngokushesha, kulapho ukwelashwa kuphumelela khona kakhulu.
- Udokotela wakho uzohlanganisa ulwazi olunikezayo, ukuhlolwa ngokomzimba, ukuhlolwa kwezithombe (i-X-ray, i-MRI), kanye nokuhlolwa kwegazi (ikakhulukazi i-HLA-B27) ukuze kutholakale ukuxilongwa okunembile.
- Ungakhathazeki uma kuthatha isikhathi ukuthola ukuxilongwa. Lesi yisimo esiyinkimbinkimbi, ngakho-ke kuyinto evamile ukuthi sithathe isikhathi. Into ebaluleke kakhulu ukuhlala uthintana nodokotela wakho futhi wenze izivivinyo ezidingekayo.
